Answer:
The correct answer is - 2.557 KJ
Explanation:
In this case, Hg is melting, the process is endothermic, so the energy change will have a positive sign.
we can calculate this energy by the following formula:
Q = met
where, m = mass,
e = specific heat
t = temperature
then,
Q = 78*0.14* (273-38.8)
here 0.14 = C(Hg)
= 2.557 Kj
Answer:
C10H22
Explanation:
Molecular Solids comprises of a Vander waal's force of attraction between the molecule. These forces are very weak when compared to ionic and covalent bond.
In Carbon, Carbon is not a molecule but an atom. One of it unique characteristics is that it forms bonds with other carbon atoms. This property is know as catenation. The bond between these carbon atoms is know as covalent bond.
Graphite is an allotrope of carbon. It exists as black , slippery, hexagonal crystals.The carbon atoms in graphite forms flat layers and are joined together by strong covalent bonds. Graphite can be used as lubricant in engines.
Gold (Au) is an element on the periodic table with atomic number 79 and a mass number 197. It exists as a metal. Most times Gold forms hydrogen bonds.
C10H22 is known as decane. It is the tenth compound formed in the series of alkane family( an organic unsaturated carbon chain family). Alkanes are aliphatic hydrocarbons. The forces of attraction between the alkane family are weak.In decane , their exists Vander waal's force which makes Decane C10H22 a Molecular Solid.
Ionic bonds are formed from the attraction of oppositely charged ions in a chemical compound
Explanation:Photosynthesis is important because the earth and all of the creatures in the sea and land need the plants to be able to feed themselves with the help of the sun and with cellular respiration, those plants are able to take in the carbon dioxide that we give and make into oxygen with we need. there fore without them we would not be able to exist.
